TIN ROOF - Rusted.

These have to be some of the most clever and lovely ornaments ever. You ask yourself, how did the folks over at kuber achieve that lovely patina? How did they find such a perfect medium from which to fashion these earthy ornaments? From the top of their chicken house. That's right. They have recycled these from the tin roof of their chicken house. Now, if that ain't puttin' a creative spin on reuse/recycle, I don't know what is.

Shop in peace

Tis the season for peace. And for shopping. This tote allows you to kill 2 birds with one stone. Wait. That doesn't sound very peaceful...it allows you to hold 2 birds on one olive branch. There. That's much better. Ecoworks makes this bag, as well as several items aimed at keeping the earth happy. So, for a holiday gift for the earth, make sure you check it out. Feel that little breeze? That's the earth saying thank you. Unless you're indoors. Then it's your fan.

Just in case you forget you're vegan



This pottery by VeganDish is lovely, and is just one of many pieces of vegan pottery in the shop ranging from ever day dishes to serving ware. Fortunately, each piece features the word "vegan". Perfect for sharing your vegan pride with the world...and serving the purpose of reminding you (in case you have a moment of weakness) that you are indeed vegan.

Bambootiful



Isn't this just one of the loveliest shirts you've ever seen? I am smitten with it. I am also smitten with the fact that us full-figured ladies could have one, too, since Sandmaiden offers a full size range in her clothing. A remarkably comfortable yet classy look. And it's made from bamboo and organic cotton - how cool is that?

High on pumpkin pie

You know, cats aren't crazy enough as it is. I think it is very important to get them completely - and organically - out of their heads from time to time. So if your cat is in need of a fix, CatzillaCrafts pumpkin pie catnip toys look like the perfect answer - and so very festive for this time of year! Both the catnip and polyfill are organic, making your cat eco-friendly. Your cat is so progressive that way. If only my pumpkin pie made me that happy...

Doin' it with a little help from our friends


Some of us have times where we want to be uber eco-crafty, but we have a hard time coming up with a project or accumulating all the requisite parts for said project. This is just for us! Ragamuffin2006 has these lovely penny rug patterns in her shop that you can use to create your very own rug made by you! I am completely smitten by this. I am not even one who sews often, but think I could pull this off. Best of all, it's all made from recycled wool. She also has some Christmas/wintery goodies in her shop, so drop by and check it out!
